 Chapter 1016: Eliminating evil

At the same time, in the castle of another demon city not far from Wilda City, an old man stared at the screen in front of him with a gloomy expression. The cold anger radiating from his body was enough to make everyone present tremble with fear and dare not say a word.

 For Belphegor, he originally thought this was an excellent opportunity.

When the ancient heroic spirit colossus from the Three-Party War period was excavated in Belphegor's territory, Belphegor thought it was an excellent opportunity. Not only can they attack their rivals, the Wilbert family, but they can also show the power of their radical faction to the current devil boy.

So after learning that the daughter of the former Wilbert patriarch had returned to the demon world, Belphegor came up with this plan.

As for the Iron Warrior on the screen, Belphegor is no stranger.

Perhaps Duanmuhuai doesn't know it yet, but in fact Belphegor has known about his existence a long time ago.

The reason is very simple. After all, Marquis Zolgear went to kill Naruse Mio at the invitation of Belphegor. Belphegor's idea at that time was very simple. With the former patriarch of the Wilbert family dead and the family currently unstable, if he could capture or kill his heir, it would be enough to deal a serious blow to the Wilbert family.

 The result...well, everyone knows it.

Zokir is dead.

This made Belphegor's life difficult within the radical faction for a long time. After all, Zolquier was a veteran of the radical faction and one of the backbones of the radical faction. As a result, he died immediately. The demons were shocked and began to complain about Belphegor, an old cunning man. If it weren't for his bad idea, the radical faction would not have lost such a general as the Marquis of Zolgear.

 “Sir, should we...”

"No, that human said he was coming to attack our castle and territory. Should we be prepared... and just in case..."

As for why Duanmuhuai determined that this was Belphegor's territory, the reason was simple.

Those heroic statues are very naughty and have the emblem of the Belphegor family engraved on their bodies. They are just like the murderers in Conan, fearing that others will not know that they did it. So Duanmu Huai only had to compare the badges and immediately locked onto the target.

So according to the standards of the Inquisition, there is only one fate for these guys.

 “You are not ashamed to speak loudly!”

Of course, Belphegor also watched the ranking game between Rias and Lysa, and was extremely shocked by Duanmu Huai's strength.

There is another kind of demon, those ancient demons, their appearance is difficult to describe.

　This is something that humans can do? !

Ten thousand steps back, even if he is a host of artifacts, he is still just a human being in the final analysis. How could he achieve this level! ?

"grown ups."

Hearing this, the old devil jumped up as if he had been stabbed by a needle, stretched out his hand, grabbed his subordinate tightly, and lifted him up.

"There is no chance! That arrogant human, this is the strongest fortress of our Belphegor clan! If he dares to come, there will be only death! Not to mention that we are one of the oldest nobles in the demon world. We have fought with angels, fallen angels, and even faced gods! And now, you want me to run away in front of a mere human? How far do you want to insult me!?"

"You actually have the guts to break into our Belphegor family's castle. You are so stupid. I will definitely kill you..."

Although Belphegor was very angry, he was not stupid. Since the other party had the strength to kill Zolgear, he would only be asking for trouble if he sent people there. So after that, he kept secretly monitoring and investigating the situation about Duanmu Huai.

Although that human being does possess powerful power, he has three heroic spirit colossi on his side! And every one of them is no less powerful than what Duanmu Huai showed in the ranking game at that time, beating Lesa violently!

From Belphegor's point of view, it's impossible to lose in a three-on-one fight!

 The result... Well, the scene on the screen in front of me once again proved that what the Heroic Spirit Colossus could achieve was not Duanmu Huai's limit.

 "Despicable alien bastards! Prepare to die. In the name of the Inquisition, I will burn your bodies and souls together, leaving you to face destruction in pain and despair!"

 Purifying the aliens can also give vent to anger, where can such a good thing be found?

 “No, sir, that’s not what I meant...”

However, before the subordinate had finished speaking, suddenly, the entire castle fortress shook suddenly, and then the entire ceiling exploded instantly. This shocked the demons in the conference room and hurriedly backed away. Then they saw a tall steel warrior striding out from the dust. A cold, bright red light flashed through his skull-like helmet.

 “Boom!!”

Looking at the demons in front of him, Duanmu Huai opened his mouth with a murderous smile. In the demon world, there are currently two types of demons. One is what Rias said before, the demons transformed from humans. These demons look basically the same as humans except for the addition of a pair of demon wings and tails.

At this moment, Duanmu Huai completely entered into working mode.

Take the demons in front of you, for example. They have a horse face, two pairs of eyes, and a cow-like horn on their forehead.

 In other words, what Duanmuhuai showed in the ranking game was not his limit.

Belphegor turned his head fiercely and glared at his subordinates.

Looking at the three giant statues of heroic spirits that he had excavated on the screen, being smashed into pieces by Duanmuhuai with a hammer, Belphegor's hands tightly grasped the armrests, veins popped out, and he clenched his teeth. In order to activate these three ancient heroic statues, he not only forgot to sleep and eat, but also spent a lot of money and wealth. However, all of this was unable to withstand the opponent's blow! ?

For a moment, everything around Duanmu Huai was reduced to pieces and suspended in the air. However, this process only lasted less than a tenth of a second before he was swept up in the ensuing roaring explosion that exceeded the speed of sound. It went all the way to the end of the horizon, even leaving a huge ravine dozens of meters wide in the city of the Belphegor family.

In his left hand, he was holding a tattered Latiko that had been almost torn into pieces.

Duanmu Huai threw the body that had turned into a rag to the side, and then scanned the surrounding area - it seemed that he was lucky, this place seemed to be the core area of ​​Belphego Castle, and there were a group of people dressed in luxurious clothes standing next to it. He looks like an extraordinary guy.

Hearing Duanmuhuai's roar, Belphegor also shouted.

How can this be?

However, before Belphegor could finish his words, Duanmuhuai raised his war hammer and smashed it down with all his strength!

Just as Belphegor gritted his teeth and stared at the screen, his subordinates came over.

　　　　——————!”

"in case!?"

 And...this is really good.

 “This is Belphegor’s castle, it’s quite close.”

Hence, after excavating the Colossus of Heroic Spirits, Belphegor's first thought was to kill Duanmu Huai as soon as possible.

　　　…………”

In just a moment, half of the castle collapsed and exploded. The moment Duanmuhuai swung his war hammer, the blast of impact air roared forward, ruthlessly tearing apart everything in front of him. Whether it was the fragile flesh of the demons, the hard walls of the castle, or even the thick ground, they were completely shattered.

 “What to do!?”

It was completely by coincidence that Belphegor escaped the blow that could tear him into pieces at the last moment. At this moment, the old devil was shivering all over. He had faced angels and fallen angels in the three-way war, and had also experienced Been through countless battlefields. But the intimidation and fear brought about by that blow just now was completely beyond Belphegor's expectations.

It was as if even his own existence itself would be completely erased, turning it into a violent and raging wave of trash without any value.

 What is that power?

 Why do humans have this power? !

 “Stop, stop him! Kill him!”

At this moment, an unparalleled sense of fear burst out from the depths of Belphegor's heart, and he issued the order almost wailing. After hearing Belphegor's order, the demon guards who rushed over without knowing what was going on immediately picked up their weapons and attacked Duanmu Huai.

"You are asking for your own death!" Duanmu Huai has never been merciful to aliens. He swung his hammer and directly knocked away all the demon soldiers who were rushing towards him, smearing them on the wall. A ball of **** paste.

  If it were a human being, seeing this scene would probably make them weak in the feet and legs. However, the demons are worthy of being demons, and this only arouses their ferocity even more. Seeing their companions being killed, these demons not only did not retreat, but continued to rush towards Duanmu Huai!

“Oh, is that so? Instead of running away, are you coming towards me?”

Looking at the hundreds of demon soldiers rushing towards him, Duanmu Huai raised his war hammer with a grim smile.

 “Then, let’s all die!”

 While Duanmuhuai was killing people, on the other side...

"no."

Mary put down her tea cup and shook her head.

"I have no idea."

 “Miss Mary? Can’t you persuade Mr. Duanmu?”

Looking at Mary's helpless expression, Wan Liya was also speechless. After Duanmu Huai left, everyone also realized that something was wrong. Although the attack by the three heroic statues did not cause too many casualties, it caused panic in the city. Ramsus and his maid went to appease the people, while Wanria also hurried over. When he learned that Duanmu Huai had entered Belphegor's territory alone, his whole face changed.

They found Mary, hoping that she could persuade Duanmu Huai to stop. However, to everyone's surprise, after Mary asked what those demons looked like... she decisively refused.

"According to what you guys said, those demons are not human beings. To the Tribunal, they are not human beings, but they are demons, and they attack us. This is enough to be completely purified. Even if Mr. Duanmu is not angered, he will not let go. Get over these demons. Not to mention he is very angry now...I can't stop him."

"Yes, it is true that most ancient demons are radicals, but they are not bad people..."

“Even if you say so, they are not human beings.”

 “Indeed it’s not...”

"Then there's no way."

 Hearing the conversation between Mary and Maria, Naruse Mio frowned.

“Miss Mary, do you think you can kill someone who is not a human being?”

"According to the standards of the Tribunal? That's right. As long as the skull is not in human form, it is considered an alien. For the Tribunal, subhuman races can be spared, but aliens can only be eliminated."

 Marie explained calmly to Naruse Mio.

 “But they also have wives and children...”

 “Yeah, I understand. But unfortunately, they are aliens.”

Mary shook her head.

"Sorry, according to the standards of the Inquisition, aliens must be purified, without exception. I know you may not understand, and I also admit that, like you said, even if they are alien demons, it does not mean that they are all bad now. "

"So……"

“However, no one can guarantee that they will not pose a threat to humans in the future, right?”

"this………"

Facing Mary's answer, Naruse Mio and Maria were speechless. They finally understood the logic of the Tribunal, but this logic was really hard for them to accept.

In other words, in order to prevent them from posing a threat to humans in the future, the Inquisition will kill them all now?

 This is also possible?

"and……"

As she spoke, Mary took out her pocket watch and took a look at it.

"and?"

“With Mr. Duanmu’s efficiency, even if we get over it now, it’s too late.”

 Then she spoke.

 Bright red like blood.

The morning sun shines down in the sky, illuminating the entire earth a bright red - that is not sunlight, but the reflection of blood on the ground. Everywhere he looked, there were corpses, corpses of demons. They didn't even leave a whole corpse behind. All that was left were mutilated corpses, and the whole city was already in deathly silence.

 “Haah…haah…haah…”

Belphegor panted, staggering and running on the street. At this moment, it had long lost its previous calmness and calmness. The luxurious robes on its body had become torn, and most of its body was also mutilated... At this moment, Belphegor was panting and staggering. There was only one thought in Belphegor's mind, and that was to run, run, run far away! leave here……!

 “Boom!”

However, the next moment, the warhammer fell from the sky and hit Belphegor's side. With a scream, the bruised old demon flew out and hit heavily among the ruins of a house. He struggled to stand up, but at this moment, Duanmu Huai fell from the sky and came to it.

“I didn’t expect that you are still a mouse and can run pretty well.”

Looking at the trembling old devil in front of him, Duanmu Huai sneered. At this moment, his dark steel armor was covered with blood and minced meat, and all the demons that stood in front of him had been killed by Duanmu Huai. And now there is only the last one left.

 “You, do you know what you are doing?”

Looking at Duanmuhuai in front of him in horror, Belphegor felt like he was going crazy.

“You killed the people of Belphegor! You even killed other nobles from the radical faction! Their families will not let you go!”

 “Then I will kill them all.”

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai stretched out his hand towards Belphegor and grabbed its head.

 “Let’s start with you!”

 “Stop!”

Just when Duanmu Huai lifted Belphegor, suddenly, a roar came from the sky, and then, a huge force fell from the sky and blasted towards Duanmu Huai. But in the face of this powerful magic power, Duanmu Huai did not dodge, he just stood on the spot, and then suddenly exerted force on his right hand - with a "pop" sound, Belphegor's head was crushed into pieces by Duanmu Huai.

At the same time, the force also hit Duanmuhuai, and then dissipated like a breeze.

 “Long time no see, Lord Demon King.”

Duanmu Huai then raised his head and looked at the Demon King Lucifer floating in the air with a solemn expression.

 “Why, are you coming to join in the fun?”
